The boiling point of water becomes decreased because acetone is highly volatile liquid its molecules decrease the effect of hydrogen bonding in water molecules therefore water becomes evaporated easily.

Why acetone lowers the boiling point of water whereas salt and sugar raise the boiling point and lower the melting point?
Acetone is a liquid with a boiling point lower than that of water; the other two are solids.
Why is the temp of boiling pure acetone constant?
Acetone has a constant boiling point because it is an azeotrope. Azeotropes are mixtures of two or more liquids whose proportions cannot be altered by simple distillation. They are also called constant boiling mixtures.
How does epson salt effect the boiling point of water?
increases the boiling point
What Is the boiling point of the actone?
The boiling point of acetone is approximately 56 degrees Celsius or 132 degrees Fahrenheit at standard atmospheric pressure.
What is the effect of salt in boiling and freezing temperatures?
The freezing point is lower and the boiling point is higher.
What is boiling point of acetone?
The boiling point of acetone at sea level is: 56.6 °C, 330 K, 134 °F.
What is the boiling point of acetone in Celsius?
The boiling point of acetone at sea level is: 56.6 °C, 330 K, 134 °F.
Why acetone lowers the boiling point of water whereas salt and sugar raise the boiling point and lower the melting point?
Acetone is a liquid with a boiling point lower than that of water; the other two are solids.
What is the boiling point of paint thiner?
Paint thinner is mostly acetone. Pure acetone has a boiling point of 56 degrees Celsius at a pressure of 760mm/Hg.
What liquid is more volatile between ethanol methanol acetone dichloromethane and water?
Ethanol boiling point: 78.37 °C Methanol Boiling point: 64.7 °C Acetone Boiling point: 56 to 57 °C dichloromethane Boiling Point: 39.8-40.0°C Water Boiling Point: 100°C dichloromethane more volatile than the others
Can boiling point of acetone be lowered if placed in a vacuum?
yes. it will be lowered.
What effect does solute have on the boiling point of a solvent?
The solute increases the boiling point of the solvent
How does salt effect boiling point?
The boiling point is higher.
What is the effect of a soluble and nonvolatile impurity on the boiling point of a liquid?
The presence of a non-volatile solute in a solution increases its boiling point. The amount of the elevation of the boiling point depends only on the number of molecules of solute present, and not on their identity. See the article entitled "Boiling-point elevation" on Wikipedia for the maths involved.
Which of these liquids has the highest boiling point isopropyl alcohol acetone or acetic acid?
This is acetic acid wth a boiling point of cca. 118 0C.
Why do acetone in an open bottle or container evaporates as gas?
Acetone is a volatile liquid, that is, it has a low boiling point. Even room temperature is sufficient to make acetone turn into vapour.
Why is the temp of boiling pure acetone constant?
Acetone has a constant boiling point because it is an azeotrope. Azeotropes are mixtures of two or more liquids whose proportions cannot be altered by simple distillation. They are also called constant boiling mixtures.
